Yeah I hear ya...I had already considered that, but again, I thought we we're talkin' speed on the water. Anyway, I'm not being too serious....just stretching the variables and havin' a little fun with this topic and stirrin' the pot a little. 
I have a lot of respect for the speed of the Fountains...I know they're fast, but that's about where it ends for me.There's more to a boat than just speed, but everyone has their own personal reasons for what boat they choose to buy/own.

Just wanna have fun!!!
Jamie,
You know I would not bash a Cigarette, great boat. Be careful with your weight reference as if we go to scales you will find quickly that the 47 Fountain weights more than a 46 Cigarette. 47's are 17,000 pounds & 42's are 12,800 pounds regardless of what the catalog says.
I have and will always refer to it as the "Cash Killer" and would not think about bashing a brand, you never know when you may be selling them and there are not to many brands we would sell.
Reggie is very good for the business and OSO. If you take everything he does for stimulating the industry and all the opportunites he gives consumers good or bad to talk about his brand there would be little left to talk about.
We will all see what brands are capable of surviving these economic times and I assure you Fountain, Baja and Cigarette all will.
So before you say we will stir it up we wanted to comment and we always accept the challenge race, kilo or poker run as long as it is all in the word of fun.
With that said, isn't it about time you drove your boat in a poker run and show what those twin WESCO 800's are capable of doing? Don't worry, we will run next to you until it's time to check out. See you on the water soon.

Hey Scotty. Jamie mentioned to big Rick about you wanting to challenge him out in lake Michigan with your 42 / 850 boat. Rick told me today to tell you that he "wants" to run you in that 42, but only if the waters are atleast 4-5's. And he said he'll run till you give up. 
I said that he may want to rethink that one.
So, he's waiting for an answer from you.
I already know what you're gonna say, I just want you to tell him yourself. Call me, this is gonna be a "fun run"
